on one hand, i'm just so sick of being treated as male and think a feminine identity would suit me so much better... and i feel that unless i am visibly "non-male", people WILL just assume/see me as one. in other words, i "should" transition to being female.

...but on the other hand, i'd honestly much rather just be a creature of some sort. so i don't think "female" really suits me either.

idk maybe i'd have a stronger desire to present myself in general if i had more/closer connections with people i'd want to present to in the first place... i think that, for most of the past few years, i've just felt varying levels of not wanting to be seen; instead wanting to just hide myself and to be left alone :(

i'd been thinking about my chosen pronouns on and off for a long time already, but it wasn't until recently that i realized it'd only be a matter of time before i'd (once again) end up adjusting the pronouns i go by. as such,

i think i'll be going with she/they/it as my pronouns from now on! :3c

simply put, there's some nuance as to which of the three i might prefer in a given situation. there aren't any strict rules for it, but here's some (rough) guidelines you can follow!

she, as in "do not call me male or i will revoke your kneecap privileges"

they, as in "this person's identity falls outside the norms of traditional, binary gender roles"

it, as in "don't know, don't care, doesn't matter 'cause i'm just a little critter :3c"
